Overview
The Bimba TRD 2-1/2″ x 6″ 250 PSI pneumatic cylinder is a tie-rod single-rod actuator engineered for reliable compressed air actuation in industrial automation, packaging machinery, and material handling systems. With a 2-1/2″ bore and 6″ stroke, this cylinder delivers consistent force output across the full range of motion while maintaining structural integrity under repeated cycling. Manufactured in the United States, it operates at a maximum pressure of 250 PSI and is compatible with standard pneumatic control systems.
